Three signs apart, 90° (a square): the aspect of friction. Your aims cross; the tension can become passion or quarrel, and often both. A square builds when both choose to work at it.
The elements
Fire and water are unlike elements: in the old language one is active and the other receptive. This is no verdict against you, but you will have to learn each other’s language, because what feels natural to one can feel foreign to the other.
In love
In love, Aries falls fast and wants passion, honesty and a partner who can keep up; boredom kills its feelings sooner than conflict.
In love, Cancer is tender, protective and deeply attached; it needs security, family and a partner who makes a home with it.
Counsel
Count to ten before you act, and finish what you begin.
Do not let old hurts close the shell; feel, then let go.

What this comparison can and cannot say
This compares only the Sun signs, as the old almanacs did. A real comparison of two people, called synastry, reads both whole charts: the Moon, Venus, Mars and the Ascendant often matter more than the Sun. Read this as a first sketch, not a verdict.
